    This document describes a student project to develop a color guessing game using Python. The game displays a color name in different text color and the player must type the color of the text to score points before the time runs out. The project covers setting up the game, coding it in Python using modules like Tkinter for the GUI, and outputs of playing the color guessing game.

    The key takeaways are developing a simple color game using Python and learning about basic game development. The game helps reduce stress and improve typing and thinking speed by trying to beat previous scores.

    The aim of the project is to develop a basic color game to get introduced to game development and as a first step for those wanting to pursue it as a career.

    Python is used because it is an interpreted, object-oriented language that is easy to learn and emphasizes readability and code reuse. It is well suited for rapid application development and scripting.

    PURPOSE
    Game Development has emerged as an integral field in the sector of
    technological advancement. Gamers and gaming professional are slowly
    improving on this sector and every now and then new games are being
    developed by such programmers.

    For the ones who wish to make a career in this field, this small
    project can be regarded as their first step.

    The game has also provided me an avenue for eliminating stress once
    in a while. It’s extremely simple and yet competitive. Trying to
    beat my previous score pushes me toward typing quicker and thinking
    faster.

    WHAT IS PYHTON?
    Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming
    language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data
    structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it
    very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use
    as a scripting or glue language to connect existing components
    together. Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes
    readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance.
    Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program
    modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive
    standard library are available in source or binary form without
    charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.

    WHY PYHTON?

    Why is Python so popular?


    1. Syntax is extremely simple to read and follow
    2. Python is very beginner-friendly
    3. Millions of happy learners
    4. Easier than other programming language.

    Why should we learn Python?


    1. General-purpose language
    2. Wide range of applications
    3. Web development-django Bottle
    4. Mathematical computations (numpy and simpy)
    5. Graphical user interface (Panda 3D)
    6. Length of the code is relatively short
    7. Fun to work with

    ABOUT THE GAME AND


    HOW IT WORKS

    This game is a quick response time killer. Anyone can play it. It
    attempts to trick the player into entering an incorrect input. The
    goal is to enter as many correct inputs as possible within the given
    time. The primary goal of the game is to break the previous record
    for highest score.
    There are ten available colors in this game; Red, Blue, Green, Pink,
    Black, Yellow, Orange, White, Purple and Brown. The game window
    displays one of the color names as text. Here comes the catch. The
    text is formatted and displayed in another color (from the available
    colors). The player must enter the name of the color with which the
    text is formatter and not the name already on display. This demands
    quick thinking and even faster typing. As soon as a player registers
    the correct input, the name and color on display changes and a point
    is scored.
    The goal is to get as many points as possible within 30 seconds.

    CODE FOR THE PROGRAM

    # import the modules


    import tkinter
    import random

    # list of possible colour.


    colours = ['Red','Blue','Green','Pink','Black',
    'Yellow','Orange','White','Purple','Brown']
    score = 0

    # the game time left, initially 30 seconds.


    timeleft = 30

    # function that will start the game.


    def startGame(event):
    if timeleft == 30:

    # start the countdown timer.


    countdown()

    # run the function to


    # choose the next colour.
    nextColour()

    # Function to choose and


    # display the next colour.
    def nextColour():

    # use the globally declared 'score'


    # and 'play' variables above.
    global score
    global timeleft

    # if a game is currently in play


    if timeleft > 0:

    # make the text entry box active.


    e.focus_set()

    # if the colour typed is equal


    # to the colour of the text
    if e.get().lower() == colours[1].lower():

    score += 1

    # clear the text entry box.


    e.delete(0, tkinter.END)

    random.shuffle(colours)

    # change the colour to type, by changing the


    # text _and_ the colour to a random colour value
    label.config(fg = str(colours[1]), text = str(colours[0]))

    # update the score.


    scoreLabel.config(text = "Score: " + str(score))

    # Countdown timer function


    def countdown():

    global timeleft

    # if a game is in play
    if timeleft > 0:

    # decrement the timer.


    timeleft -= 1
    # update the time left label
    timeLabel.config(text = "Time left: "
    + str(timeleft))

    # run the function again after 1 second.


    timeLabel.after(1000, countdown)

    # Driver Code

    # create a GUI window


    root = tkinter.Tk()

    # set the title


    root.title("COLORGAME")

    # set the size


    root.geometry("375x200")

    # add an instructions label


    instructions = tkinter.Label(root, text = "Type in the colour"
    "of the words, and not the word text!",
    font = ('Helvetica', 12))
    instructions.pack()

    # add a score label


    scoreLabel = tkinter.Label(root, text = "Press enter to start",
    font = ('Helvetica', 12))
    scoreLabel.pack()

    # add a time left label


    timeLabel = tkinter.Label(root, text = "Time left: " +
    str(timeleft), font = ('Helvetica', 12))

    timeLabel.pack()

    # add a label for displaying the colours


    label = tkinter.Label(root, font = ('Helvetica', 60))
    label.pack()

    # add a text entry box for


    # typing in colours
    e = tkinter.Entry(root)

    # run the 'startGame' function


    # when the enter key is pressed
    root.bind('<Return>', startGame)
    e.pack()

    # set focus on the entry box


    e.focus_set()
    # start the GUI
    root.mainloop()

    OUTPUT
    CONCLUSION
    We learned how to create the color game in Python. Many things could
    be added to this little toy game but this serves as a very simple
    example.

    The good thing about this game and our solution is that it is very
    simple. The approach is pretty simple and easy to understand even for
    beginners. This game could run on many platforms.

    There can be many more features which can be added to this game to
    make it more interactive and interesting.
